Chapter 79

Zendaya tried to defame Rosalie.
Jonathan casually played with Rosalie’s finger and said nonchalantly, I’ve asked you to clean a sanitary worker’s shoes. What’s wrong with that? Even if the mayor’s daughter cleans her shoes today, she can afford it”
Zendaya was speechless. She couldn’t compare herself to the mayor’s daughter.
Standing at the side. Carlos urged, “Ms. Xanthos, please hurry up. Mr. Youngblood doesn’t have much patience. When Mr. Youngblood is impatient, it’s not just about cleaning the shoes.
Zendaya bit her lips unwillingly. No matter how reluctant she felt, she could only take each step toward Rosalie. Eventually, she squatted down in front of Rosalie and began to wipe the clean shoes on Rosalie’s feet with tissues.
Rosalie looked at Zendaya squatting in front of her. She had never thought that one day such a scene would occur. She wondered. “Is everything Zendaya going through now also experienced by Lillian? How did Lillian feel at that time?”
At that moment, Rosalie felt sorry for Lillian. At the same time, she seemed to understand why Jonathan had called Zendaya over and deliberately performed the scene in front of her.
He wanted to convey to her that he was powerful and capable. Even those who used to be proud and disdainful of Rosalie could only kneel and clean her shoes obediently as long as Jonathan said so.
Zendaya wiped the shoes for a while and then asked, “Mr. Youngblood, is this sufficient?”
Jonathan grinned. It’s not over yet. How could it be done so easily?”
After he said that, Carlos stepped forward and said to Zendaya, “Ms. Xanthos, I’m sorry.” Then, he stepped directly on the back of Zendaya’s hand.
Zendaya instantly yelled in pain, “M-Mr. Youngblood, what are you doing?”
“Wasn’t this what you did to Lillian that night? Or are you suggesting you didn’t do that?” Jonathan asked calmly.
Of course, Zendaya had done it, so she couldn’t even refute it.
Jonathan spoke softly to Rosalie, who was beside him. “Rosie, didn’t you say that Lillian is important to you? Are you pleased that I’m avenging her now?”
He looked innocent as if he merely wanted to please Rosalie.
As he spoke, his hands were still playing with her left hand Jonathan pressed his fingers between her fingers and slowly held the back of her hand. It was as if they were holding hands.
Rosalie only felt that her left hand, which he held, seemed completely stiff. It was so warm that she wanted to remove her hand from his.
However, her hands seemed disconnected from her rationality and were unable to move at all.
She had never seen Jon like that before. However, only the real Jonathan could perform such an act while casually conversing. Everything she had witnessed in the past had been an illusion,
The back of Zendaya’s hand was in pain. If it were to be stepped on like that again, her hand might end up just like her foot.
“Mr. Youngblood, my hand will fracture. Please spare me,” Zendaya pleaded. She was in pain. Tears and shot streaming down her face, completely shattering her usual image.
However, Jonathan didn’t even spare a glance at Zendaya. He turned to Rosalie and asked, “Rosie, what do you think? Is it enough?
Despite Zendaya’s resentment toward Rosalie, she could only ask for Rosalie’s help.
“Rosalie, I know I was wrong. I shouldn’t have treated your friend that way. I’m willing to apologize to your friend. Please,
spare me”
Rosalie Jooked at Zendaya, who was crying bitterly. She knew very well that Zendaya’s begging was because of Jonathan, not
her.
Rosalie had no sympathy when she saw Zendaya in that state. As she thought about how Lillian had been treated like that by Zendaya before, she found herself harboring both hatred for Zendaya and self-blame.
Rosalie would rather endure the humiliation herself than have Lillian experience it.
Lillian had sacrificed a lot for her. However, after she was released from prison, not only could she not repay Lillian properly, but Lillian also suffered because of her.
“Okay, then I want you to apologize to Lillian in front of everyone who witnessed the scene that day and compensate her for the medical expenses resulting from her injury, lost income, and other expenses,” Rosalie said.
Zendaya nodded frantically, agreeing Apologizing and compensating was definitely a better choice than fracturing her

Chapter 79 hand.
Then, Carlos moved his foot away. Zendaya clutched her hand, unable to grasp the crutch due to the pain.
Jonathan ordered, “Carlos, Let Zachary in and bring his sister away.”
“Yes,” Carlos replied. Soon after, Zachary followed him into the ward.
Zachary hurriedly assisted Zendaya to get up as he saw her holding her hand with tears on her face. Then, he looked at Jonathan and Rosalie sitting on the couch with a complicated gaze.
Zachary had known about Jonathan’s relationship with Rosalie, but it was the first time he saw them together.
The woman, who had been abandoned by him and had fallen to a lower social class in the city, now had a promising future. Perhaps Zachary would find himself looking up to her in the future.
The change in identity left Zachary feeling inexplicably annoyed.
“Mr. Youngblood. I’ll bring my sister back, Zachary said.
Jonathan raised his eyebrows slightly and said. “Don’t you want to greet Rosalie? You two should be old acquaintances.
His tone sounded casual, but Zachary was inexplicably terrified.
“Well… Ms. Leighton and I haven’t seen each other for a long time. I hope we can put the past However, Jonathan’s following sentence made Zachary sweat even more.
“Rosalic, he broke up with you immediately when you encountered the incident. If you want to lake revenge on him, I can help you.” Jonathan’s words had the tone of someone offering a small favor.
When Zachary and Zendaya heard that, their expression changed. behind us,” Zachary replied cautiously. He could feel a cold sweat breaking out on his back.
